I only write facts.

You will hear this from them: I needed to call someone but I didnt want them to get my number. Well that is ok if you are calling a pervert and to tell them off thru that mode of communication. At least, that will save you from being continuously harrassed.

And these people manning the phone are not-so-nice people too. They sound so desperate and in need of fast bucks just by calling people like us. And they are worst that samseng tarik kereta, atau samseng kutip utang ahlong.

"Mana awak dapat nombor phone saya?"

"Kami ada database"

Fuck that database.There are people inside the bank itself selling our names and our personal details. Kalau tidak, how the fuck do they even know our IC number? Kat toilet?

And these fuckers are rude too. And surely, we must put a stop to all these nuisance to our daily life.

The last time I heard, our names can be sold at 0.50 sen each complete with contact number, address and IC number. Tapi aku tak dapat nak verify whether this is true or not, but from the look of it, aku yakin benda ni berlaku.

My brother was not spared too. He wrote a lengthy email to Bank Negara asking for stern action to be taken selepas one dickhead from one insurance company forcing his wife to say yes to their stupid coverage scheme.

And the best part was, his wife only holds a supplementary card. Walaupun berkali kali kata taknak, this fucker even told her that the charge will still be reflected on their card statement. Sial tak?

Bank Negara should do more on this as insurance falls under their jurisdiction. But people must come forward too. My brother is an example. And trust me, Bank Negara reads their emails. So go and send them emails if you are being harrassed or dupped into such scheme.

In the meantime, should you happen to receive such call, say NO and if they refuse, please contact Bank Negara via phone or even email. Remember to jot down names, phone numbers and all relevant information that may help Bank Negara to investigate.

my hubby used maybank credit cards and the same thing happened. he called the insurance company, had a heated argument, lastly was told to fax a termination letter and did exactly that, but was still credited for two months after. blaming maybank (since he once complained to it), he cancelled his cards. rugi banyak ratus RM gak & dia tak halal duit tu. nasib le...

I told myself that our hp no. had been on sale for a very long time. It used to be we received many sexy related model SMSes daily then now, plus insurance. When I told them any insurance related issue is Husband's dealing, the callers want his no. I fear of being trapped.

Everytime he tells them dia dah settle habis kad tu, they demand he make payment. When he calls Bank Islam, they say he owes them nothing, to ignore the calls. But how do you ignore your phone constantly ringing throughout the day?

To make things worse, Bank Islam asks for the people he spoke to at the collection agency. All the names he was given were found to be fake - none of them work at the agency. And of course takde sorang pun mengaku that they made the calls.

This has been going on since Nov 2008. His bill was settled (no overdues) since July 2008. Kesian sangat with my colleague sampai hari ni he is harrassed with calls and sms.

Watching him go thru this (he sits next to me so I have to hear this every damn day!) has convinced me not to take up any Bank Islam services. Never seen a bank so viciously trying to get their money!

If the banks cannot control their own collection agencies, no wonder ppl are getting heart attacks and dying after such harrassment!

yati: if you could have some documentation proof, you should write to Bank Negara sebab based on my brother's experience, they acted promptly upon receiving our complaint, well, unlike other govt depts and agencies.

nenekpenne:lols. dun worry, they deserved it. haha

cikzazi:good move! i normally do that too. Ask them to fax over their terms and conditions, tapi biasanya the telemarketer will sound so kelat and masam. likewise, diaorang memang tak diajar untuk beradab.

azhan:hahahaha hopefully their company will be closed!

ice:yes, because nobody is monitoring them.

zaleha:can we put a stop to this?

echah:hahaha those are people selling some kind of membership. pastu mahal nak mampus lak tu.

eliza:serious? Get your friend to write to Bank Negara as it comes under their jurisdiction. Once ada tindakan dari BNM, they will normally write directly to CEO of the bank. Tell your fren to write a.s.a.p. Share with us here BNM response ok?
